The effect of electromagnetic radiation birefringence in the field of a relativistically rotating pulsar or magnetar within the framework of vacuum nonlinear electrodynamic
Abstract
Within the framework of the parameterized post-Maxwellian vacuum electrodynamics, the propagation of an X-ray or gamma-ray pulse through the electromagnetic field of a relativistically rotating pulsar is studied. Expressions are obtained for the trajectory of this pulse and the law The effect of electromagnetic radiation birefringence in the field of a relativistically rotating pulsar or magnetar within the framework of vacuum nonlinear electrodynamicsof its motion from the point rs=\xs,ys,zs\, where an X-ray or gamma-ray burst occurs at time t=ts to the point rd=\xs,ys,zd\, where the detector of this radiation is located. In the case when the post-Maxwellian parameters of the theory differ, η1≠η2, the time of nonlinear electrodynamic delay of electromagnetic signals transported by different normal modes is calculated. The change in the polarization state of the X-ray or gamma-ray pulse after passing through the electromagnetic field of the relativistically rotating pulsar is analyzed.
